Defying Gravity, Building Company Culture Through Adventure, and Creating an Epic Life
Marshall Mosher is the co-founder of VESTIGO, as well as an Executive/Test Pilot for the Gravity Industries propulsion suits.
While we recorded this conversation in March, I know Marshall’s continued living an epic life despite a global pandemic, challenges with convening corporate executives for Vestigo outings, and the ensuing political and social unrest we’ve seen (as I write this June 18).
That being said, you do NOT want to miss the interview, as we get into the science and mindsets behind building deep, meaningful relationships through unique shared experiences, learn all about Marshall’s company, and how to navigate fear.
Marshall Mosher, from Atlanta, GA is a 2015 graduate of the University of Georgia where he completed a triple major in Biology, Psychology, and Economics along with aMasters in Public Health Administration.
After graduation, Marshall participated in a summer at NASA and Google at the Silicon Valley technology incubator Singularity University in their annual Global Startup Program (GSP) where he worked on building adaptive virtual reality environments triggered by heart rate variability.
Following his work at Singularity, Marshall combined his passions for Public Health and action sports with the founding of Vestigo. With clients like CNN, Home Depot, and EY, Vestigo utilizes the mental performance-enhancing power of adventure sports to create real and virtual-reality-based experiences that train teams to embrace adaptability, foster a mindset of innovation, and overcome our biological desire for stability and comfort.
To live by this mindset in his personal life, Marshall is an avid multisport adventure athlete constantly seeking to challenge his own limits as a Class V Whitewater paddler, paraglider pilot, Jet Suit pilot, Ultralight pilot, mountain biker, snowboarder, kiteboarder, scuba diver, vertical caver, and climber.
Currently, Marshall is training to set a world record with the tallest solo Summit to Sea expedition ever completed, a completely human-powered journey from the top of Mt Everest to the Indian Ocean via mountaineering, paragliding, and whitewater kayaking.
To learn more about how Marshall promotes a mindset of peak performance and innovation via action/adventure sports, you can listen to his podcast, Inside the Adventure, ranked Top 3 in Adventure and Travel and you can follow him via Instagram at @marshallmosher to see his latest adventures and updates.
